while fully advocating for MURDER, and murder it is, no more, no less, no rationalization you can add to it changes it....

Back in the 18th Century, novelist Johnathan Swift wrote "A Modest Proposal", wherein he suggested that the impoverished Irish might ease their economic troubles by selling their children as food for rich gentlemen and ladies. He wrote "A young healthy child well nursed, is, at a year old, a most delicious nourishing and wholesome food, whether stewed, roasted, baked, or boiled; and I make no doubt that it will equally serve in a fricassee, or a ragout."

It was satirical hyperbole, intended to provoke debate.

I think carlo3b intended to do something similar, and went about it in a clumsy manner.

Debate is one thing. This was not open to debate. He made absolute statements. What about “I am FOR a woman’s right to choose” to murder her own child anytime of the day or night or years or week, just leave me out of it and that makes ME not guilty didn’t you understand?
Which part of smell those ovens but leave me out of it don’t you understand? Ain’t no halfway. You aquiesce, you are complicit, and you are guilty. Period.
